Can someone please help with the aperture size on a Micro BGA stencil. I want to have an electroformed stencil made with 0.1mm (4mil) thickness. The PCB pad for the micro BGA has a 0.406mm (16mil) diameter. What size should I make the apertures for t

Igmar, Although I agree with Chrys that square is good,( Better volumn ) his explanation is not entirely correct. Heres a little insert from automata: With square apertures, solder paste is deposited at the center of the aperture. The center release

Hi: If anyone have the experience with the PCB pad design and stencil design for the uBGA? We meet the problem for it. The component data is 0.3mm diameter and 0.5 pitch. Could anyone tell me the PCB pad dimension, the stencil type and aperture dimes

Igmar: Chrys and JAX make good points. I'd like to add that you should be careful that you don't starve larger chip components of solder when using a 4 thou stencil.

I've searched the archives and maybe my search skills aren't up to snuff but I couldn't find much. I'm curious what people are doing for 0.4 mm pitch BGAs, assuming a type 4 paste. Pad diameter? SMD or NSMD? Stencil thickness? Aperture diameter? Us

My personal opinion: Use 20 mil squares with the corners radiused at 5 mils. The squares offer 2 benefits: 1) A little more paste, which makes for a higher diameter solder column that is more reliable 2) Better stencil release of the paste. It's e
